Just a bit of a tread bump as I've picked up a used CX recently.
Anyone know what Brand and model these mudguards are? Probably not sold anymore, but look like an elegant solution.

They look a bit lacking in cover?
I had sliver SKS Commuters on my 2014 Team with 32mm tyres.
Bontrager do good mudguards too

Look like SKS Bluemels Primus:

More options at SKS who have a huge range.
 
Just did a few hundred miles touring Northern France. Horrible headwind for the last 3 days (gusting 20 knots) but the bike performed well.

The previous owner had not taken good care of it, lots of thick grease and crud, but I cleaned it up the best I could. Plenty of scuff and marks o the frame, and the dreaded cable rub. It costs less than £200 so couldn't complain much though.

Easily spent that again and more setting it up for touring.

The front mudguard needs a little work. The forks being pre-2015 model don't have the best angle for the mudguard mount. I was very short on time so had to ride it like that, but will sort it out over the coming weeks.

I had tried to shoe horn an 11-36 cassette, but it's just a little too much for derailleur. Would probably work with a wolf tooth, and longer chain.

Last night on my commute to work, my 2014 CX Team crossed the 20,000 mile mark. Aside from basic maintenance I have only replaced the front wheel with a dynamo hub and replaced the original rear wheel as the freewheel started playing up. Probably one of the more comfortable bikes I own, and still the keeper of longest single ride at 201km. Good value and glad I bought it.
